^ You are right. It would be a tad boring, hope Chopper takes him on, then we'll have a nice fight. It would be too easy for Luffy (jajaja). On that note, a "Legendary Pirate" got KO'd in less than a chapter's worth of pages. Anything goes right now.

No, you misunderstood, Luffy is the one who's probably weaker, not Jesus. Chopper would have no chance against Burgess. Again, don't underestimate a Yonkou's crew.
And that legendary pirate was being depressed for 30 years and lost his biggest weapon. Luffy still has a long way to go

No, I understood, I was just being a dick. I'm not underestimating. I had a similar discussion about how strong have the Strawhats have truly become. And we would argue a possible: Jimbe vs Luffy (Serious) and one side would say Luffy would one hit KO Jimbe, while I said that even though I knew Luffy would win, the Knight of the Sea wouldn't go down that easily. As the chapters went by, Luffy's progress has been shown in several ways. I like to say that he "finishes" opponents as quickly as he can, usually with a Conqueror's Haki or Armament. But one thing is for sure: we haven't seen his best. I think all these high tier techniques have been downgraded. They are mid level at best, and that is because Luffy isn't getting tired anymore.

(We could discuss the fight in Merman Island, but, let's be real, that was pretty disadvantageous for Luffy being a DF user and all.)

You might be right that Chopper wouldn't have a chance against Burguess, however I'd rather have that, a more entertaining, strategic fight than having Luffy fighting Jesus. Yes, Burguess is a Yonkou commander, but Luffy is the captain and future pirate king, so he doesn't even register /joke Jajaja. In the imminent fight against the BlackBeard pirates, the Strawhats will have to fight against Burguess, and bla bla, so they have to be ready. As someone said before, if BB would show up, what? flee? 2 years, for it never happening again. 2 years, that you devote, you go insane to accomplish your goal. At least that's how I see the monster trio's progress, insanity.

1) You're right, to think Luffy could one hit Jimbei is a bit...dumb. Of course, if he'd stay put and Luffy would do what he did to Noah, he'd probably KO everyone of the Supernovas, but that wouldn't happen in a real fight.
2) And yeah, he didn't go all-out yet. This will be against Dofla, probably.
3) Of course they are all going to fight the BB Pirates later, but at the moment, they may be ahead of the SHs in terms of power growth and will just max out earlier. Then they will be surpassed
4) As I said above, it could just be the BB Pirates are ahead right now. And it would be no shame to retreat in front of a Yonkou. You can't expect the SHs to go against Admiral level opponents, even after 2 years' training. There are still around 500 chapters to be had, if they were that strong already, they'd simply power through

Damn, that was such a fucking great chapter! So so so so much win!! SOOOOOOOOOO MUCH WIN!!!!
I called Barto (though I didn't think he'd be the male version of Hancock), I also thought Chinjao will be an ally and damn, he even talked to Blackbeard!!! And then he's informed about the coming war against Doflamingo!! Hell yeah, I'M PUMPED!!!!

I could see him giving her the DF if she promises to get stronger or something. Dunno, though, she's too weak xD
